"He is handsome, but not a good person."

Translation: 他很帅，但是不是一个好人。

This made me lol

A life lesson here.

I got it correct but I think "他很帅，但不是个好人" is more natural here...

[AndriesKir]

Would the sentence still work without the 一个?

[Nevin711542]

Yes I used it without the 一个 and it was accepted

[PeaceJoyPancakes]

"可是" should be accepted in place of "但是".

[dr.destinyksh]

Can we only use 但 instead of 但是 ?

[Yunqi4]

Yes

[chuy277]

我可以说"好的人"吗?

[PeaceJoyPancakes]

It's not impossible, but there are a couple of reasons why I would avoid it. One is that common single-character adjectives don't typically require the use of "的". The other is that "好人" is something of a set phrase.

[Erikku15]

You could also use 壞蛋 literally means (bad egg)

[deactivated user]

But that is a bit informal, and mostly only children use it. Kind of like the word "tummy" - most adults don't really use it much.

[Sora942232]

I wrote 他很帅，可是不是好人 and because I heard it in the Chinese drama, and got marked right, but what is the difference between 可是 and 但是?

[PeaceJoyPancakes]

There's no big difference. "但是" is ever so slightly more formal.

[yoshiihsoy]

no need for “雖然” here?

[Marcus534860]

The given English sentence did not have "Although.."

[SparkitEle]

他很帅 但是不是一个好人

was rejected

[PeaceJoyPancakes]

if you use spaces in your Chinese sentence, Duo will reject your answer.

what's wrong with: 他很帅但是不是一名好人 ?

I thought you could use 名 as a classifier for people?
